Raphinha on Nico Williams potentially joining Barcelona:
“Nico Williams is an incredibly talented player. His technical ability, speed, and football intelligence are top-notch. You can clearly see his quality every time he steps onto the pitch. It’s not by chance that he’s being considered as a potential signing for Barcelona—he’s already proven himself at the highest level, including with the Spanish national team. Being called up to represent Spain is a clear indication of his calibre and potential.”
On welcoming new players like Nico to the team:
“At Barcelona, we always embrace players who arrive with the right mindset. For me, and I believe I speak for the entire squad, it’s essential that anyone who joins comes with a strong work ethic and a willingness to fight for the team. Talent alone isn’t enough—you need to be committed to the collective goals. If a player like Nico joins us with the mentality to help the team grow, to compete hard, and to give his best, then he will definitely be welcomed with open arms.”
On the possibility of changing his position in the team if Nico arrives:
“When it comes to team selections or tactical changes, that’s entirely up to the coach. My job as a player is to give my all, regardless of the position I’m placed in. I trust the manager to make the best decisions for the team, and I’m always ready to adapt and contribute wherever I’m needed.”
